What we do know, she says, is that bioluminescent dinoflagellates can be found in oceans and cold waters, but pyrodinium, the strain in the Indian River Lagoon, likes it warm. (Find out more about ...

If someone says “You’re glowing!” you may be in love. Or, more likely, you’re a marine animal. It’s a separate process from biofluorescence, in which blue light hits the surface of an ...

But let's give it up for some of the tiniest critters occupying the Big Blue, the diminutive dinoflagellates that have a way of lighting up the night. We are, of course, talking about the ...

Karenia brevis is a naturally occurring, single-celled organism belonging to a group of algae called dinoflagellates. Large concentrations can discolor water from red to brown, causing blooms to ...

Summary of plastid evolution in alveolates. The plastid genomes of C. velia and CCMP3155 provide a direct link between the plastids of apicomplexans and dinoflagellates because they retain ancestral ...

In Florida, dinoflagellates (plankton) and comb jellies are responsible for creating mystical blue light. Thrillist notes there are small pockets of the Key West and St. Petersburg areas host ...

Different types of dinoflagellates prefer different weather conditions—some thrive during periods of cold weather, while others proliferate during times of high precipitation. Based on the ...

So Zonneveld and her colleagues turned to the next best record: fossilized shell-like cysts from microorganisms called dinoflagellates in seafloor sediments from Italy’s Gulf of Taranto.

At home in the ocean, dinoflagellates produce flashes of light in order to deter predators. In small structures 3D-printed out of the new material, they likewise emit light when the material is ...

This light is emitted by a group of marine microorganisms called dinoflagellates, specifically Noctiluca scintillan, said Mr Clarence Sim, a PhD student from Nanyang Technological University’s ...

These sparks were emitted by a group of marine microorganisms called dinoflagellates. Dr Emily Curren, a marine biologist from the National University of Singapore's Tropical Marine Science ...
